?? about a vacuum

nbrande · 03-15-2008, 09:57 AM

I found a Hoover Windtunnel2 on clearance for $70 originally $249.
Is this a good vacuum or should I take it back??

My parents had a Hoover Windtunnel. It was actually a pretty good vacuum, I liked using it.

Try Googling and see what kind of reviews there are on it.

That is a great price for that vacuum!

I just bought this vacuum last week. You got a better deal then me.

I thought mine was a good deal.
Consumer reports gave it great reviews. That's why I bought this one. So far I really like it, and it works great on wood floors. My old vacuum didn't it would just spit things out and hit me in the legs.

I bought this vacuum right after my daughter was born (Oct 06) because my old one didn't seem to be doing a good job anymore and I really like it. It seems to do a really good job at picking things up and it has some really great features like the telescoping handle. I paid 240 and I think that it was worth every penny so I would say you did awesome. The only thing is that the bags can be hard to find.

I always check www.amazon.com for reviews when buying! It's helped me! There are usually tons of reviews.

Here is YOUR link. Not sure which one is yours!

Same here - a couple weeks ago my vacuum started stinking whenever I used it longer than a couple minutes - hubby replaced the belts, but it still stinks!!

So either get it repaired or a new one - I don't know if it's worth it to get it repaired or not

oh yeah, we had one that started doing that, too! and that smell is so weird!
we had a vaccuum repaired once that I paid something like $100 for on sale, and it cost $20 to fix it, so it was worth it. But then something else went wrong with it and it would have cost $60 to fix it, so I told them just to keep it..
if you have a repair place around you, they should be willing to give you an estimate on how much it would cost to repair.

Found it at Sears. They found three when they were re-arranging for inventory. But like I said after reading the reviews I might take it back. Anyone close by wants to buy it they can have it for what I paid for it.
